Jiang's second-smallest alpha invariant conjecture for K-semistable Fano manifolds
Jiang's second-smallest alpha invariant conjecture for K-semistable Fano manifolds
Let be a K-semistable Fano manifold of dimension , and let denote its alpha invariant.
Jiang's conjecture. if and only if .
This conjecture asks whether projective space is the unique K-semistable Fano manifold whose alpha invariant lies below . It concerns the gap between the sharp general lower bound and the next possible alpha invariant; the paper's construction of examples with alpha invariant addresses the related question of whether values strictly between and occur.
